They finally built up enough film to have tendencies, it would appear.<BR/><BR/>Their unbalanced stuff is really worth a gander. Now imagine this:<BR/><BR/>Unbalanced with five yard splits for both the play side tackles. Is that anything like what they do? They're all over the place from what I've seen prior.

I assumed that LSU should have been able to exploit this with inside penetration and blitzing. It seemed like Miami did this well.Pattersonhttp://cfreview.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15377771.post-60049000958139127542008-10-15T17:31:00.000-04:002008-10-15T17:31:00.000-04:00Good stuff.
